...indeed, if he is a psychopath he is driving himself into a corner so that his only escape is death, and not his own.

Obviously, Putin has not chosen to consider what he is fighting for, if truly he has a 'Communist' conviction.

I ask, has he really had the opportunity to study such thought's origins? Clouded by the corruption of it in Russia by "Russians" (even before his birth) it has become a foil for the fear which plays out on both sides of a frontier divided by those who would prefer if such thinking was wasted so that the plunder of 'our' resources (Labour included) continues for those who benefit from such acts: the elite (read: ruling class) through capturing power in whatever form is represented.

...he is a man more attached to the past. This it appears to be his failing.

Someone who is looking forward looks beyond oil, (and what is Russia's leadership for alternatives to its power) for all our sake ending the dependence on oil itself at least; and this war is about "oil", isn't it? There lies the irony (or is this war a grand cabal's drama), because it hastens such objectives, not just in the EU; Putin's last hurrah (for the money he gets from oil), is a happy coincidence toward the world's objective, counter-intuitively, of saving the planet.

...if things do not continue as the are, the Problem is solved, he is famous and adored by the whole world along with Erdogan and Zelensky, or, living in infamy, perhaps facing a trial for War Crimes. "Winning" this war seems even less likely.

What does it mean Russia cannot win? Cannot win what? Has Putin ever declared he wanted to take over the whole of Ukraine?

Ultimately the Russian speakers in the east and the south will be part of the Russian federation and the rest of Ukraine will not join Nato.


Lordo, Putin denies even the Ukraine's existence. It is only because they are defending themselves with such vigor that he failed to overwhelm them.

...and indeed, a lot of the Russians choose to be ''Russian''; that's easy. Yet there are Russians against ''Them'', and him, still. Notice the similarities of the Problem to the problems in Cyprus?

Repulse, your posts are not out of wisdom but out of hatred... for if you’re looking for psychopaths you should look no further than Washington where they have the finest collection in the world!

Anyway, I can’t stick around tonight so I’m keeping it short.

Given the standard, I really can't think of a less hateful person on this forum than RW. I don't understand why he's stuck around. Given the shite he tends to attract from people like yourself.

Hate? You Sir are legion - full of it. :wink:

GR is right, almost.

"Americans" those who feel an entitlement toward such a notion base it on their "exceptionalism". So too the others like Putin and his "Russia", so too the "Ukrainians" that sully the name of Ukrainians, having the same weakness as any one of "Them". This is the Problem. It can be solved quite easily if such people considered 'us' as a whole, as Humans, rather than "Their" kind exclusively, something apart (as superior). One may hope so, Lest we Forget.

The enemy of Amerika is 'us'. It is not "Russians" (or any one of "Them"); that is being short-sighted.

...i still see GR by the side of the road, in the ditch terrified with warplanes up above; such a memory sticks with you, people react differently.

RW. It's academic to "me" but "I" think that perhaps "you" should be less timid and more "assertive" when it comes to "your" opinions. You really shouldn't feel the need to "fear" what the great man might say. Try this....................... "fuck him". :wink:

...i am sorry, i don't understand what you're saying.

""fuck him"", is him/"Them", not me.
